The Inside Stylists Podcast: Episode 156

Building Your Personal Brand as an Interior Stylist

In this episode of the Inside Stylists podcast, I dive into why building a personal brand is so important for interior stylists. It's not just about logos and colours—it's really about the story people tell about you when you're not in the room. I share some of the insights I've learned from Daniel Priestley's work on becoming a 'Key Person of Influence' and talk about how vital it is to practise what you preach when it comes to your brand. I also pass on some of my favourite networking tips, how to introduce yourself and others in a way that builds real connections, and why putting yourself out there is key to building trust and boosting your visibility.

enjoy!
